It's the end of the world as you know it – brought to you by a Gnome Mage with big balls of fire

What class is he?

I can see he dual specs, and he is great at turfing missiles across the room.

Hunter?

At 1st thought he is a Hunter, but as much as he loves his fluffy stuffed non-combat pets, he runs screaming from any furry creature with blood pumping through it’s body.

Rogue?

Maybe he’s a rogue. He lies in wait for his unsuspecting Dad to enter a room, then ganks him. He knows how to find the soft spots, can bring Dad to his knees in only a couple of blows.

He cackles with glee as he delivers the final blow.

Rez Inc…

But then he must be a healer, because with a couple of quick motions, and a

Come on Dad, get up, I want to dead you again

Dad is back on his feet running from certain kiddy doom.

Warrior?

Maybe he’s a warrior. He gained endless joy from waiting in the dragon’s lair (under Grandma’s dining table) with Dad for the ferocious fire breathing dragon (Mum) to return so he could ambush her.

Shaman?

Mind you he leaves trail of totems everywhere he goes, so maybe he’s a Shaman.

Guild Leader

Whatever class he ends up being, he is defintely the Guild Leader…

He makes the decisions about what is going to happen when, who gets the raid invite (No Daddy, I want Mummy!).

Mind you he is the Drama Lama in the family.. bloody Leo’s

(Speaking of Lamas… He loves petting zoos… can’t wait to get inside, except… When he gets inside, near all those living breathing animals, then he wants out.. fast… The other day we found one at a festival and it had a Lama… Lama was eye height when in Daddy’s arms… Daddy, I don’t want to be here!)

Early (childhood) entry into gaming

On a slightly different subject Rip had a post on casual gaming, and just to throw in my 2 cents, I will draw attention to my son.

Not yet 3, but he can’t get enough.

When I’m home, my iPhone is his. The more noise the game makes, the better it is.

Then he found YouTube on my iPhone, and the Wiggles videos. Then he found the same on the PC.

That new gaming mouse must be good, a week ago he couldn’t use a mouse, now he can point and click a Wiggles video at 100 meters.

Dual-wielding (clearly long daggers, not swords), res, only a shaman can do that. Now what race is he? Clearly not human, they can’t be shamans. His back doesn’t seem messed up, so not spacegoat. Blood elf? He lacks tusks, so not a troll. Perhaps he’s a very pale brown orc.

I must say I’m glad he hasn’t delved into dark magic, at least not yet. >.>

(I promise not to corrupt him.)

If he’s into games and videos on your iPhone.. he’d probably love the Wii. My nephew (now 5) loves all the Wii sports games… we got him interested in gaming-ish stuff right away. :P I started by buying him one of those handheld Leap Frog systems and we’ve slowly progressed… letting him play video games with us for a bit here n there.

I can’t quite tell if my brother-in-law and his wife are happy or not about it.

Oh well, Sideshow is the blood connection, so it can be his fault, not mine! xD

@Softi: I have had a few friends with avid WoW playing kids long before they could read.. it’s all pictures after all… One of them told me he would occasionally have to shit over his kid’s shoulder, typing in response to the party’s questions while they instanced… yeah, 4 year old instancing…!

@jong: Why else would I have children… I need someone to farm while I produce more farmers…. mmm too much info?

@Eury: Well, he’s already my hero… but I doubt WoW heroes would get away with running and crying when they get hit… Admittedly he never dies… so maybe…

@Troutwort: Ahh that explains my mental state, blank stares and moaning when I get back off the floor.

@Klepsacovic; Orc Shaman… Maybe 1/2 Orc… Just trying to think which side of the family isn’t Orc…

@Cathy: Yeah.. picking pockets… First words out of his mouth last night when he saw me… “Daddy, have you got any money?” Damn they start young.

@Syrana: I am being very careful not to define the totems in any more detail… ohhh OK… he hasn’t started toilet training, and they tend to be earth totems… say no more…

lol, like the promises of a soul stealing warlock mean anything ;-)

Not letting him near a Wii… actually we are a console free household… but he does love them when he gets to his “Aunty’s” place… then, he loves to swing anything, especially if there is cause & effect reactions.. No not like swing the bat, hit the ball… more like throw the controller, hear the screams…
